well, Milan became a bit more organised but mostly it was Arsenal running out of steam I think. Ox and Walcott went off with niggles, not much on the bench so it just drifted past us


I'm happier with the way we played than I am gutted about not getting through tbh. We don't have the squad to progress much further AND get a spot in the league so all in all I'll take it


2 things tho - UEFA have charged Arsenal for fairly innocuous (and accurate) comments. And dear god that ref was lame beyond belief. He wasn't biased, just lame


But some of the "banter"ish comments on here about last night seem a bit petty compared to the events and drama in the game. Props to otta and others for recognising the positives

Sorry but its not good enough really. You can dress it up as you like but its the end if the road for another season.

And im sorry SJ but Milan may have been a different side had they not won the tie already. Great effort by Arsenal but I think it was attitude that won over. As soon as the gap was 1 goal it was shut up shop, next round please.

It would be a brave or foolish team who had a gameplan of "let's not bother unless to get within a goal, then..."


Arsenal's season has been another dud - 'tis true but that's not the same thing as building on what you have


Entirely possible (nay probable?) that we got beaten by a couple of goals last night. People didn't expect anything like those early goals (nor with any conviction)


In the context of the last month where we have come back twice against big teams, the difference this year is that we are finishing (touch wood) on an upward trend, compared to recent seasons where we promised much by Feb only to disintegrate completely.


Dress it up as YOU like, but the last 3 games against big teams has shown a different, more spirited Arsenal. And for a team which doesn't spend fortunes that's no small positive

It's an argument I have often enough with arsenal fans, never mind anyone else


Yes I'd rather we won trophies but on balance yeah I'm happy. Seasons are frustrating but interesting. And unlike most of the other big clubs, we are in a sound financial footing. Chelsea or man city could make rangers or Portsmouth look like a model of stability if their owners up and leave

I support the Irish team. The team in the black.

We are 4th in the league currently, and have played Champs League CONTINUOSLY for more seasons than City, Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham. We haven't spent gazillions like Livepool, United, City, Tottenham, and Chelsea and we show a healthy profit year. So yeah we're on a downward spiral. Could end up like Pompey, Rangers or Port Vale. FFS.


Messi is a joy to watch, he's totally off the scale.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
